</translate>

<translate> * Automatic patches that remove Nintendo restrictions, such as:</translate>

<translate> ** Region locking, allowing you to run out-of-region cartridges and titles</translate>

<translate> ** Signature checks, allowing homebrew to run from HOME Menu</translate>

<translate> ** The flashcart block list, allowing you to run blocked DS flashcarts</translate>

<translate> * A "Rosalina menu" accessible from anywhere within 3DS mode with many of its own functions, such as:</translate>

<translate> ** Cheat support</translate>

<translate> ** Plugin loading</translate>

<translate> ** Taking screenshots</translate>

<translate> ** Input redirection</translate>

<translate> ** Blue light filter</translate>

<translate> * LayeredFS support, allowing you to replace individual game files with modded versions on-the-fly</translate>

<translate> * FIRM write protection, preventing boot9strap from being overwritten with system updates</translate>

<translate> ** This does not mean that system updates will always be immediately "safe"; from time to time, something changes in the system firmware that requires a Luma3DS update</translate>

<translate> * A chainloader that can boot <code>.firm</code> payloads located in the <code>/luma/payloads/</code> folder. It is accessible either by holding START on boot or by selecting the "Boot chainloader" option from the Luma3DS configuration menu</translate>

<translate> ** If only one payload is inside the <code>/luma/payloads/</code> folder, running the chainloader will automatically boot that payload</translate>

<translate> ** Before Luma3DS 7.1, <code>.bin</code> payloads were supported instead of <code>.firm</code> payloads</translate>
